BY LifeSiteNews.com WASHINGTON, DC, January 28, 2005 (LifeSiteNews.com) – In a wide-ranging 40-minute interview with the New York Times Thursday, President Bush spoke of abortion and homosexual adoption.Earlier this week, the President told 150,000 participants in the annual March for Life, “The America of our dreams, where every child is welcomed in law—in life, and protected in law may still be some ways away, but even from the far side of the river . . . we can see its glimmerings”Yesterday, the President told the Times, "I think the goal ought to be to convince people to value life." He added, "But I fully understand our society is divided on the issue and that there will be abortions. That's reality. It seems like to me my job is to convince people to make right choices in life, to understand there are alternatives to abortion, like adoption, and I will continue to do so."Bush also refused to cave in to demands that more embryonic stem cell lines be made available for research. He told the New York Times that "destroying life to create life is not ethical" and that "whether it happens in the private sector or the public sector, it doesn't change the ethics."The President also addressed the controversial subject of homosexual adoptions without failing to mention the scientific evidence opposed to it. Bush said that "children can receive love from gay couples,” but “studies have shown that the ideal is where a child is raised in a married family with a man and a woman."See the President’s full address to the March for Life:  http://www.lifesite.net/ldn/2005/jan/050124a.html jhw http://www.lifesitenews.com/news/bush-discusses-abortion-and-gay-adoption-with-new-york-times/
